Exterior view of La Junque Shoppe, formerly the Hose #1 Fire House and horse street railway car barns, at 704 Harrison Avenue in Leadville, Colorado shows a two story brick building which has a decorative cornice, three second-story windows, a first floor opening with brick radiating voussoirs and an opening with a glass panel garage door and a three panel wood entry door topped with glass and a square transom above. The signs "Hose No 1" and "La Junque Shoppe" hang above the garage door. "Pre Season Sale" and "Sale" are taped to a garage door over the window. A printed sign "Yes, we are, OPEN, come on in!" and a wooden sign "La Junque Shoppe" hang perpendicular to the building at the edge of the garage door. Four mismatched wooden chairs and a floor lamp are displayed in front of the store. Plants and a glass lantern are in the windows. Flanking brick buildings include partial signs, metal awnings, decorative window hood and stone lintel, sills, and cornice. A parking meter, fire hydrant and front end of a car are in foreground.
